    I've found a 120Hz panel that's intended for use with the Clevo N855EK1. What I'd like to know is will this screen work with the N855HJ? Does anybody have any input to offer on this? Thank you in advance.

    If the connection is the same (30 pin edp for example) it would be fine. Check the data sheets. Hwinfo or the hardware ID in device manager to check your current panel.

    There's some displays listed in the sheets for both that are the same, so there's a good chance anything that will work in one will work in the other.

    Worth checking the connector and electrically you will be fine.

    The Clevo N855HJ apparently uses the same 30-pin connector as the N855EK1, so I guess everything should just be a drop-in upgrade.

    Electrically you should be good to go, physically I don't think there were changes.
